Go Home Drama Logline 1: In GO HOME, which repurposes the xenophobic insult as a transnational quest for home, the U.S. backlash to the Iran hostage crisis blurs the lines for a Parsi Indian foreign student between his peace-loving Deadhead neighbors and violent, xenophobic strangers. Logline 2: Caught in the U.S. backlash to the Iran hostage crisis, a Parsi Indian grad student, Viraf, coming of age in campus town Newark, Delaware, battles contemporary Cowboys-versus-Indians xenophobic violence, oppressive authority, and the powerful tug of his motherland India—personified by his ex-girlfriend Maya, while his flower-child, band-groupie, artist neighbor Ali embodies the counterculture love-and-peace pull of early-’80s America—on a transnational quest to find home, his “perfect place.”
